Listening test B

Mia: Hey David. Did you like our school’s sports day
yesterday?
David: Hi, Mia. It was really fun.
Mia: I really liked that each team wore a different
colour. My team wore red. How about you?
David: Yes, that was a great idea. Our friend Tom
was on the purple team, that’s my favourite colour,
but I was on the blue team. I took part in a lot of the
activities.
Mia: Me too. There were three races: sack race,
three-legged race and 200-metre race. Oh, and I ran
in the 200-metre race.
David: That was a fun race. I took part in the sack
race. I got third place. Didn’t you win your race?
Mia: Yes, I did. I can’t believe it.
David: Did you get a prize?
Mia: I will. I can choose between a comic book and a
basketball.
David: I would take the comic book. Which will you
choose?
Mia: I’ll take the ball.
David: Great choice.

Listening test B

Damon: Hey Julie. Did you hear about our school’s

Environment Day?
Julie: Hi, Damon. Yeah, it sounds exciting! It’s in the
park on Tuesday, isn’t it?
Damon: It was going to be on Tuesday, but in the
end it will be on Thursday because of the weather.
Julie: That’s right. The weather forecaster thinks it
will rain on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Damon: Did you see the posters about the activities?
I signed up to plant vegetables.
Julie: I’m going to collect litter. The school is going to
give us gloves.
Damon: Yeah, and bags, you just have to bring
water.
Julie: Are you going to listen to the talk by our
headteacher Miss Bliss about ways we can help the
environment?
Damon: Yes, and she will talk about the history of
Earth Day, too. It should be interesting.
Julie: I agree. Well, it’s time to go to Science class.
I’ll talk to you after school.
Damon: OK. Bye.
Julie: Bye.
